 RIP DIY
A group photography show celebrating the lost but not forgotten DIY spaces of Brooklyn, NY. The DIY music scene in Brooklyn is a constantly changing landscape; venues open and close in the blink of an eye. Brooklyn has been hit particularly hard recently with the closing of some long-standing institutions like Death by Audio and Glasslands. Some will rise from the ashes to create new spaces and new identities, but most will simply fade away, taking with them opportunities for creativity and community. Twenty photographers come together to create a visual eulogy for this time, space and community. Featuring images from 285 Kent, Big Snow Buffalo Lodge, Dead Herring, Death By Audio, Fitness, The Glass Door, Glasshouse, Glasslands, Goodbye Blue Monday, The Ho_se, Monster Island, Party Expo, original Secret Project Robot, The Shank, original Silent Barn, and The Woodser. Exhibit Artists Include: Rafe Baron Liz Beeby Luke Chiaruttini Liz Clayton Tina De Broux Nate Dorr Donald Fierro Richard Gin Stephanie Griffin Edwina Hay Nicki Ishmael Jeanette D.
